I know that I have said this over and over but Im going to try ONE MORE TIME!

We had a good thing going for a while there people! We must be the only SAU community to have the chance to be able to get together weekly for a few drinks and a good time and NO ONE is taking that opportunity anymore!

I dont know whether people just lost interest or if they can peel thier eyes from the bloody O.C every Tuesday night, but I know that I always had fun going to meet up with this group at Jerra and now whenever I go I dont even know if there will be anyone there!

Whats wrong with everyone? Why pass up the chance to have a great night out during the week and let off some steam? (fair enough if you have other commitments but surely you can come out after if they dont go until 10pm)...

I have only been an SAU member for just over a year now but in that time a have made some real friends who are some of the best people I have met and I mostly owe it to Tuesdays at Jerra!

Remember the carpark when it was lined with 'Lines and we had to make our own tables cos there were just too many of us!?

If anyone tells me that they NEVER had a good time at Jerra on a Tuesday night then I would say that they are lying cos it was great!

COME ON people! I have talked to people in the other SAU areas and they all think that we have the best opportunity to get together and be the most tight knit group in Oz, but they cant believe it when I say that people have just stopped going! They tell me that they wish they had something like we do! and most of us are just throwing that opportunity away... :thumbsup:

I know that Jayce, Erica, Andrew (Veilside33) and Mark (Bluprint) will back me up in saying that we should have more interest from people on these forums because being a "member" doesnt mean just writing up a few threads online every now and then - it means getting out and enjoying your car with other people who have the same interests and similar cars.

This is the last time I am going to try... If no one is interested then Ill shut up about it, we'll just let it die and Ill just stop going too.

Mick as I have said before I think there are a couple of factors why people don’t come all the time. For me I love coming but can only get out every 2 - 3 weeks due to Fi having the car for netball the other times. In saying that though I don't want to be out every Tuesday I have to work to much + other friends + some time to do nothing is always good :thumbsup: once a fortnight yea for sure I am happy with but I just don’t think we have the numbers anymore to do every single week. So lets not just kill this great event how about we just make it less frequent for starters and see how that goes ???

Righto you lot:Mick(the Bullet32 formerly known as R31DET...)has hit the nail on the head. I can understand some people having commitments,but even if 1 in 3 people had a night off from the numbers we used to have, we'd still have a BIG turnout. OK,it's easy for me to only have three Tuesday nights off total in a year,as I'm close by,and some people have to travel from afar,but I thought half the attraction was to drive your Skyline to meet other Skyline owners,yes?!?

as i dont have a car still, i cant get there. and as i live in Lanyon now, there are almost no SAU'ers here (aside from p1r4t3r, rachel from what i know of) so the only way i can get there is to get a lift, but no Lanyon SAU'ers go to trivia i dont think...?

Prove me wrong...?

OK;I'll try a diiferent tack,that goes out to all & sundry. Apply this as required!

DON'T tell us why you wont be there. DON'T give us excuses. DON'T justify your no-show. Just don't come along to enjoy the fun those of us are having that DID show up! Those that DO want to come along,see you there;if you want to post that up,before or after Tuesday nights,feel free! I just don't want to hear the negative voices(even the ones in my head),as I feel they bring the whole tone down a notch or ten...

I agree jayce but if you also look at who posts on the forums now alot of the people that used to post are the ones that came to trivia and are no longer around. Alot of the newbies on here don't come or if they do its once in a blue moon (no offence newbies :D)

Well, its Tuesday tomorrow and I will be going to the Jerra club, I know that I can rely on Jayce and Erica, Andrew and a few other non-SAU members (friends of mine) to be there but if no one else is coming then thats thier choice...

Ive had enough of trying to drum up more interest every 3 weeks so this is the last time.

Option 1 - Come along to a nice place that serves great food and drinks, have some fun with great people and let off alittle of that week day steam.

or

Option 2 - Dont come and carry on doing that normal repeatative thing that you do every Tuesday night (you might enjoy it).

And Shaun - I dont think that you have to worry about the toilet dwelling gay guy that your so scared of cos Ill be there and I promise Ill lay the smack down for you if I have to :ermm:

I hope to see a decent turn out tomorrow night but hey if it doesnt happen what can you do?

well because you are all putting on the guilt trip and the fact it will probably be the last one i will steal the car from the girl and make her catch a bus to her presentation in the city :ermm: . Though i will have to leave by like 7:45 so she can get to netball.

i LOVE trivia nights... and the gossipy/NW mag type questions i kick arse :)

unfortunately i work till midnight (Mon-Thurs) and have done so ever since you guys started going, otherwise i would be there.

maybe if there was somewhere else that has it on a Friday night or something... and just plan to go once a month... so it's like a regular monthly meetup.

i think going every week can mean a lot more of "cant be bothered I'll go next week"

JMO... might work to get more people! :(

EXACTLY my point :) if you make anything so frequent people take it for granted and will only come when they really feel like it... make it once a fortnight or monthly worst case and see how it goes because i can see tomorrow will probably be the normal people (not that it's a problem for me :()

i think going every week can mean a lot more of "cant be bothered I'll go next week"

JMO... might work to get more people! :)

      Fellow ADHDer to fellow ADHDer; Don't chase that paint perfection. Paint the bumpers, and put them on.  Leave the respray for another day. Plus, no one is going to see those old areas above. Any spots of surface rust, give them a clean up, prime, then hit with a white paint just to protect them from rusting. Again, no one can see it.   #Mine hasn't been on the road since 2011 cause ADHD... I've slowly learned not to keep f**king with shit if I don't need to...

      That would be interested if it's the case as seems like it would make the job a lot messier but subaru sells OEM gaskets so seems it might of had it.

      Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️

      Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.
